What is listening and why is it important beyond social media?
Participating in a listening course will allow you to understand the breadth of this technique, which encompasses not only social media, but the entire Internet. Imagine being in a room full of valuable conversations about your brand or business; listening gives you the ears to hear everything that is being said and take advantage of it. However, listening alone is not enough if you don't transform that data into strategic decisions. It is essential to monitor and measure information with a clear purpose, and this course has taught you how to do it effectively.
How do you work with qualitative and quantitative data?
Using both types of data gives you a more complete understanding:
-
Qualitative data: provides context and nuance to audience sentiments and opinions. Examine comments, reviews and mentions to understand why consumers feel a certain way about your brand.
-
Quantitative data: Provides hard numbers that allow you to measure the reach and frequency of conversations about your brand. These include the number of mentions, interactions and other key performance indicators (KPIs).
How to structure the information in a visual dashboard?
Separating information in an Excel is a good start, but structuring it visually in a dashboard can provide an immediate and understandable perspective of the whole picture. A well-designed dashboard includes:
- Charts and indicators to monitor key metrics.
- Interactive elements that allow you to drill down into specific areas.
- Trend visualization to detect patterns in consumer behavior.
Why should you take the certification exam?
Getting certified is a way to formalize and validate your knowledge in listening. At the end of the course, you are offered the opportunity to take an exam, the certificate of which you can share on your social networks. This not only gives you a tangible recognition of your skills, but also:
